They aim to get 15 stars by choosing a range of 3, 4 and 5 star activities which are organised into three categories; Literacy, Kinaesthetic and Investigative. There are a wealth of open ended tasks that encourage the student to take ownership over their home learning, with the option of completing more tasks if they wish to. The other benefit of the projects are that they allow for independent learning and others that encourage the parents to get involved.

A fantastic two lesson sequence which can be used in a Newspaper Reports topic or as part of the Ancient Egyptians.

This lesson includes a presentation with an activity. The pupils find out about the three seasons in Ancient Egypt and then make a poster to show their understanding. Includes multiple season pictures for the children to choose and use for their poster.

A fantastic two lesson sequence about the Afterlife and Mummification. The first Smart Notebook gives the opportunity to either present a wealth of fascinating information on what the Ancient Egyptians believed about the afterlife or else print it for the students to highlight and make notes. The lesson concludes with the pupils comparing and identifying what the Ancient Egyptians would have taken into the afterlife and what they themselves would take with them. The second lesson involves the students mummifying a doll such as a Barbie. Pictures and a script is included for the teacher to read which instructs the children on how to embalm the body (with herbs), preserve it with natron (salt) etc. An incredibly memorable learning experience which could be followed up with an Instructional writing task.

The activities are focused on encouraging the development of problem solving skills through interactive activities that require the children to work cooperatively and use technical vocabulary to explain their thinking. SEN and EAL children have also been differentiated for. There is a clear focus on the use of other adults in the room to challenge and scaffold. Throughout the lesson there are good opportunities to formally assess and develop thinking further.

Very effective resource used throughout or at the end of a lesson as a self or peer assessment tool to evaluate learning. This is a formative and cooperative way of assessing a students understanding, and a great motivator for students of any age. It is a very effective tool to encourage students to identify their own next steps in learning, as well encouraging them to share their reasoning with the teacher and peers. Most effective when used as permanent working-wall and referred to consistently, especially during plenaries.

This image has been turned in to a display to support students understanding of what it means and looks like to dig deeper in our thought processes and how to produce more in-depth sentences. It can also be applied to other areas of the curriculum, especially when looking for more thoughtful and extend answers when you ask a question. This display provides great imagery to a concept that can be quite abstract in younger children.

This display lettering is to encourage a more positive approach to learning from mistakes and a growth mindset approach to recognising our areas of weakness and focusing on improving them. A description of how I use this resource is contained within the pack and the approach taken to maximise the engagement of students.

These sentence stems are a great way to get students to reflect on their own and their peers learning. They can be easily utilised for setting a particular focus for self/peer assessment time and is an effective way to introduce this reflective and independent approach to learning with confidence.

This resource allows students in your class to respond to work or material that is on display in your classroom. It is a great stimulus to encourage engagement with the displays as these can sometimes become just like wallpaper. By providing this little area that contains guidelines and suggestions, it encourages students to think about the learning and post comments on the wall for their peers and teachers to assess and allow deeper thinking skills to develop.
